Joy Ride Around Town


It feels like late spring/early summer with temperatures in the 70s.

Then, all of a sudden you wake up the next day to a windy and cold day--SO WEIRD!


On another note, tomorrow at work, we are having a "Costume Luncheon," but I don't even have a costume. My friend/co-worker Tracey and I suggested I should dress like a rock star based on what is in my closet.


Well, since I don't have any costume, I will be wearing a "work friendly", "stylish" "rocker"--what this means is that I will probably be wearing one of my favorite color black ;)

Most important, it is going to be a fun day with lots of food. PS: I love food ;-)


Outfit: F21 harem pants, H&M jacket, Aldo pumps/bag

I always like to visit the Blogs of the commenter’s of this blog and recently I have seen a strong trend emerging promoting the benefits of all the new styles of Wellies.

Years ago wellies were seen in black or khaki green and if you were lucky navy or red but never with a heel. But with today’s fashion taking a leap we now have wellies in all colors, patterns, styles and textures to suit all fashion followers. Wellies have hit the web and the high street with a twist. They are now styled with a wedge!

Wellies are now seen on the catwalk from Burberry to D&G who showcased cork wedge wellies in their collection! With the UK’s wet climate and the snow of last winter Wellies are somewhat of a necessity and I’m looking for a pair for as fantastic investment to walk baby Arthur and Louie (the dog) on our local common.

If you have a link to a great pair that would make a fashion statement this winter, please tell us in the comments!

VivaLaDiva helped provide a lot of the information for this post and I would like to thank them for their assistance...

Life is a beach...

After busy weeks of 12hrs work per day, school, and countless of assignments/cases, I needed a break; so, we decide to head to Miami.

I had a blast with my hubby and my friend Ivelisse and her friends. I was also beyond tanned--even my co-workers noticed! We spent most of our day at the beach, and constant visits to Newscafe for pasta and dancing away the hard work all night ;)












After a nice brunch at Nikki beach<--love it!



I couldn't stop browsing & twitting--follow me on Twitter here more pics of Miami coming ;)

I am supposed to wear a costume to work on Friday, but I have even bought one yet--any suggestion????

What are your costumes for Halloween???

Meeting a legend: Heinz-Josef Radermacher

Dear readers,

I'm very proud to present some impressions of Düsseldorf's most famous bespoke tailor for suits and dress shirts: Heinz-Josef Radermacher.

As featured in Bernhard Roetzel's book "The Gentleman" (at least in the German edition), I always wanted to meet this gentleman. So today I took the chance (thanks to Jules) and did a little shooting in this special location.

Please keep your eye on the studio's little details and enjoy the pictures.

Jules at work: Tailors sitting on tables seemed like a cliché to me. But it's true!
